+% NORM overloads the norm operator for Analysis Objects.
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%
+% DESCRIPTION: NORM overloads the norm operator for Analysis Objects.
+%
+% CALL:        b = norm (a,pl) % only with data = cdata
+%              b = norm (a)
+%
+% INPUTS:      pl   - a parameter list
+%              a    - input analysis object
+%
+% OUTPUTS:     See MATLAB's norm.
